Black Market

Look in through window panes painted red
Press my face against the glass to try to see inside
I try so hard to discern the shadows but they look dead
I couldn't see through the smoke no matter how hard I tried

You locked me out of your air proof cage
Then resented me because I couldn’t be what you wanted me to be
Anger decaying and infecting with age
I can’t help but disagree

Fuck you I don’t need your approval and grace
You left me here alone to walk through the twilight
The scars you left aren’t easy to erase
I despise what you so blindly think is right

I used to hate myself completely
Because I couldn’t see what you could see
But now I understand what you hide so discreetly
All the things you embody for me, I never want to be!

AN:Metaphor! "There are just some things that don't seem very fair in the world, like this fucking hypocrisy of organized religion. I just don't understand how people can blindly believe a bunch of the shit they're fed, to believe it so that they don't think too hard about other issues. 'Be a good boy and you'll go to heaven.' If it works for you, fine, but it doesn't work for me and that pisses me off because I kind of wish it did." - Trent Reznor

"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." -Stephen Roberts

"Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense." -Chapman Cohen

"Religion is not merely the opium of the masses, it's the cyanide." -Tom Robbins

"Is man one of God's blunders, or is God one of man's blunders?" -Fredrich Nietzsche
